Out enjoying a picnic or grabbing coffee with friends? Choosing reusable containers, bottles, cups and cutlery over disposables is a great way to be more sustainable. This summer, reuse when you can & when you can’t, make sure to recycle right @VeoliaUK #GreenerKingston

It may be tempting to go into the water in this weather but remember, as rivers and lakes are still really cold, you may risk cold water shock, panic, disorientation and loss of muscle control. Rather than struggling #FloatToLive. @RNLI @LFB youtube.com/watch?v=Q0j_yo… #SaferKingston
